Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!-Chapter 162: Secretary Miller’s Missing Daughter
Early the next morning, Thea Shaw was woken up by a phone call.
The person on the other end spoke urgently, "Sorry Miss Shaw, am I disturbing you? Do you have a moment? I..." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
Thea asked a bit confusedly, "Who is this?"
The person quickly responded, "I’m Warren Ford’s assistant, we met last time, my last name is Miller."
Thea instantly remembered, "It’s you."
Secretary Miller’s voice carried obvious anxiety and despair, "I’m sorry Miss Shaw, I’m at my wits’ end, and I wanted to ask you about what you mentioned to me last time."
Thea recalled.
She did indeed tell Secretary Miller something last time.
From his appearance, Secretary Miller looked like a man separated from his wife and children, so she kindly gave him some advice.
She advised him to pay attention to his daughter.
Now this call confirmed that Secretary Miller’s daughter might actually be in trouble.
Thea got out of bed while washing up, she said, "Secretary Miller, don’t worry, take your time to explain."
Perhaps Thea’s calm and soothing tone helped Secretary Miller force himself to calm down, and he said sadly, "My daughter is missing."
He only discovered it yesterday afternoon.
Secretary Miller works closely with Warren Ford, as the chief secretary, he is capable and has status, but his only drawback is that he is always too busy with work.
His wife, while staying at home to take care of their child, also has her own social circle.
The child spends most of her time at a prestigious nursery school, where a nanny is responsible for pickups and care, which should be very safe.
But unexpectedly, yesterday afternoon, the daughter went missing.
After the nanny picked her up from the nursery, along with the home driver, they took the child to the supermarket to buy groceries for dinner, which is something the nanny does every week.
Shockingly, the child was taken away inside the supermarket.
Surveillance footage showed the nanny selecting a pile of greens, with the child standing by her side; she merely turned her head, and a figure in a black hat appeared and pulled the child away.
The key point is that the child only struggled slightly and didn’t resist much when being taken away.
The nanny didn’t notice at all; by the time she turned back after picking vegetables, in just seconds, the child was gone, and she screamed immediately.
When they quickly went searching, the figure in the black hat had already taken the child away; the surveillance only caught them getting into a van, a cloned vehicle familiar with the local cameras, disappearing around a few corners, and the police have yet to find any leads.
According to the routes leaving Aethelgard, the police speculated that the person is still in the city, just hiding.
But in just one night, Secretary Miller is already mentally collapsed.
He is very competent at work, but this is his only daughter, his wife has cried all night, even Warren Ford gave him time off to search for his daughter, and they’ve even reviewed all the city’s surveillance footage, yet still haven’t located the child.
Now, after a night’s time to slightly calm down, Secretary Miller remembered that Thea had warned him before.
Desperately clutching at straws, he called Thea.
After listening to everything he said, Thea paused and directly asked, "Haven’t you suspected the nanny?"
She had warned him just by looking at his face to be careful of those around him; from the overall situation, the nanny was the biggest suspect.
